Elementary visual hallucinations in migraine and epilepsy.
A comparison of the elementary visual hallucinations of 50 patients with migraine and 20 patients with occipital epileptic seizures showed that epileptic seizures are predominantly multi-coloured with circular or spherical patterns as opposed to the predominantly black and white linear patterns of migraine. This simple clinical symptom of the elementary visual hallucinations may be helpful in d...

While simultaneous recording of EEG and fMRI is actively conducted for the former, in some cases, epileptogenic activity is undetectable by EEG. Attempts to detect such abnormal brain activity by using fMRI are underway. Analysis methods for resting-state fMRI can ...
